vengeful - Story 162813 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The coffee cup trembled in Amelia's hand as she waited. She'd chosen this cafe specifically, knowing it was on the route her target took every Tuesday. The aroma of roasting beans did little to soothe the tightness in her chest. She watched, meticulously, as a woman entered the shop. The woman’s long, blonde hair was unmistakable. It was Chloe.

Amelia’s fingers tightened on the ceramic. She watched Chloe order, her back ramrod straight. She would wait, she decided, until Chloe had her coffee. Then, she'd make her move. The air in the cafe felt suddenly thick, suffocating.

She stood up, walked to Chloe, and accidentally spilled her coffee.
